Can I put my dendrobium kingianum in the fridge at night to induce blooming?

aww c'mon! Surely you have a cold(er) spot somewhere in your home, a basement, a far off window, an uninsulated window. Just put it there. set a work light over it with a 100w (27w) cfl bulb on a timer, and leave it alone for a few weeks.

Couldn't hurt to try.

No. I have a 200sqft dorm room and that is all I have. It's pretty uniform in temperature and I can't set my plant on the windowsill because the dang genius architects put the radiator right there. Which I turn on in the cold months to keep warm.

So yeah, I really don't have the space and certainly don't have a basement haha.
